Van Morrison Duets

This was another enjoyable commission for Ruth - one which required her to work on Van Morrison’s latest album release. The music icon enlisted the help of some of the artists he most respects, to perform and re-craft the songs with him, Ruth says "This theme of re-working is reflected in the sketchbook feel of the design with pencil lettering, notes and doodles used throughout the CD cover, booklet and disc. Sensitively designed by Michela Comisso, I was asked to reference Van Morrison’s own notebooks and handwriting for style, complementing the soft hues and textured papers of Michela’s beautifully conceived packaging."
